Chat application is a feature or a program on the Internet to communicate directly among Internet users who are online or who were equally using the internet. Chat applications allow users to communicate even though from a great distance. Therefore, this chat application must be real-time and multi platform to be used by many users. The development of information and communication technologies are...
A key requirement for a smart grid deployment is a robust and secure communications network to access all components. We present a platform that provides easy connectivity to smart grid and automation components from the Internet with security and availability as the main objectives. The system is already in production for home automation remote access.
We propose a simple yet effective controlled and collaborative presentation system using tablet PCs for a classroom or meeting room use. The system does not require the Internet to be functioning, but simply needs a local Wi-Fi connection via an access point. This makes our system invaluably suitable for the classroom uses, especially in some rural parts of the world where the Internet accesses are...
In this work, we describe the Spanish interuniversity experience, known as “the AutomatL@bs project”, whose main objective is the design, development, and exploitation of a network of virtual and remote laboratories for the teaching/learning of control engineering across Internet. The methodology employed in the development of AutomatL@bs has considered (i) the technical details necessary to transform...
In the following work, we can observe a systematic process to obtain a web application, from the use of the method 2.0 and use OOWS RIA. A typical situation in programmer's work is that often must repeat pieces of code with some specific goal, that without being exactly the same share a structure that can be reused, these pieces are called snippets. While there are alternatives to work with snippets,...
This paper describes the advantages of using mobile devices and the so-called active learning method in higher education. The authors use their methodological experiences to include m-learning in their teaching process, focusing specifically on higher education and engineering students. The paper also describes the authors' motivation for expanding the existing e-learning projects with mobile learning...
Web Mailer is an Web based E-mail client. We have developed various Web Mailers as themes of bachelor's or master's thesis. During developments of Web Mailers, students studied a lot such as programming, networking, user interface issues and so on. According to the deployments of new technologies, Web Mailers have evolved and enriched. This paper introduces our Web Mailers and its technologies.
In recent years, E-learning has been in a continuous development, due to the fact that it eases the process of teaching, evaluation and selfevaluation, offering schedulling flexibility and a tool support. E-learning makes learning content available even in remote locations, eliminating the need to travel to the place where the content is delivered. Nevertheless, the current E-learning platforms have...
On one hand, the convergence of the Internet, Telecommunication and Broadcasting is generating new services over the Internet, and on the other hand, the online experience is getting improved via the introduction of user profile mobility and web session mobility. While different architectural schemes for HTTP session mobility have been proposed and implemented in the academia, the industry has introduced...
In this paper, we analyze the fact that the user experience and the transmission speed conflict with each other on the Mobile Internet, and then puts forward a solution from three aspects. Firstly, considering limited-resource devices on the Mobile Internet, this paper introduces the compound document as the file system. Secondly, considering enhancing user experience of the mobile internet, this...
Laboratory work, in the disciplines of engineering and physical sciences, has a strong impact on students' learning outcomes and it is considered to be at the heart of learning. Hardware experimental environment is usually treated as an exclusive resource for single user usage. However, the actual test run time is rather short and most of the time is wasted leaving these costly resources idle. With...
Safety is a very critical domain in an industrial organization. This is especially true for organizations having multiplicity of scientific and engineering disciplines. This requires a broad based safety management system which has to take into account various aspects consisting of planning, management, preventive measures, compliance to safety standards and response to emergencies. In order to make...
This paper proposes a novel platform for object locating application in the Internet of Things environment. In this platform, objects and inquirers access and query locations using uniform service entry interfaces in heterogeneous services. To build a virtual storage system, services entries integrate enterprise database clusters and a DHT peer-to-peer network built with inquirers' devices. The DHT...
Effectively assisting people in complex and highly dynamic work environment requires advances in high-level declarative activity models that can describe the flow of human work activities and their intended outcomes, as well as novel interaction approach for distributing and coordinating information across physical objects, time and space. This paper describes a novel modeling technique for pervasive...
Personalized recommendation is hot issue in information management system nowadays. With the technology, it can improve the QOS of information service. In this paper, we present a new user profile model based on semantic meta-model of digital resource, using implicit feedback, the users' profiles can be adjusted in time. Comparing the 'like' query in the standard SQL in relational databases, which...
Taxi is an indispensable component of urban transportation system, which aims to provide a convenient and efficient means of transport. However, unlike bus service that has fixed station and schedule, to most taxi-seekers, the formula for catching a taxi at the nearest place with the shortest waiting time is experience plus luck, especially in peak hour or adverse weather conditions. In this demo...
Portal service is used to integrate different information sources, and could support users with SSO functions while email service as a common facility is essentially seldom integrated with Portal. Recently emerging AJAX technology could provide quick-response interactive interface loading email columns rather than the whole portal page. Using this technology and based on the analysis of portal page...
Network is an inevitable trend in the development of Geographic Information System (GIS). Silverlight, as a cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in, can bring the next generation based. NET-media experiences and rich interactive applications for the network, and provides new method of performance for the new generation of WebGIS development. With the research of Silverlight and REST technology, this...
Internet streaming services like YouTube (free) and Netflix (paid) provide additional content sources to traditional IPTV services. Commonly accessed on computers, how these services can be enjoyed through home appliances such as TV sets is still unclear although there are early attempts. We propose to physically separate application functions such as content browsing and selection from content delivery...
The globalization trend has been affecting Central and Eastern European countries since the 1990s. A number of countries, each with its distinct language and culture, have been established after the fall of the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia. To successfully target this market a presentation form is needed that takes into account these unique circumstances. Today, the World Wide Web provides a basis...
